Thank You D&A Lawn Service

Every spring the Woodward Greenbelt has been a terrible eyesore. This year D & A Lawn Services volunteered to clean the Woodward Greenbelt free of charge.

D&A Lawn Service is the company the Landscape Committee selected in 2014 after an extensive search for a company to provide service for our island maintenance and upkeep.

“This is our company’s way of saying, ‘Thank you to Palmer Woods Association for allowing us to provide this service’,” says one of the owners, Hasteena Muhammad. Fellow co-owner, David Boddy, wanted this to be their gift to PWA as we celebrate our Centennial year.

D & A Lawn Service, established in 2012, is a family-owned business. Owner David Boddy states that he had worked for many landscape companies for the past 20 years; partner Hasteena Muhammad, on the other hand, worked for over 20 years in the medical field. One day they decided to start their own business. They began with two workers, a rake, a broom and a push mower. Now there are have 137 clients, three trucks, three trailers and seven employees. They are excited about the growth and feel that there is no end in sight and that they are up for the challenge.

“We are very proud and honored to have been chosen to continue to provide our services for the prestigious community of Palmer Woods on their 100th Anniversary” say the owners. Our motto is “Determined and Ambitious.”

The Palmer Woods Association would like to express its appreciation to D & A Lawn Service for their exemplary services to our community and for volunteering their ser-vice to clean up the Greenbelt.
